Do I need to create a new account in every city that I wanna buy with?
No. You will only have 1 account. You can use your existing account in logging in to a different city. You just need to add new address information that corresponds to the city that you’re in.

Will I be receiving my orders in less than an hour?

You can check the product’s type of delivery on the product’s page.
For products with the “Same-day delivery” tag, you can expect them to be delivered the same day you purchase the item. You will see an estimated time of arrival details once you check out your order.
For products with a “Standard Delivery” tag, it’s more likely that the product is from another city or the seller doesn’t want to offer same-day delivery on the product. Delivery of items depends on what courier you chose but usually, it takes 2-8 days.

How much is the shipping fee?
